Strictly low budget with ID problems
Game Style: Not successful at either HO or adventure, this game tries hard to be both. The result is a game that's too slow and easy for an adventure game, and too hard for a HO.
Artwork: Mediocre visuals with no real sound or animation to involve you.
Story: Too slow.
Replay: I wouldn't. May be of greater interest to strictly HO fans, but then the mystery side just gets in the way. The HOs are quite tricky, because they test your verbal skills as well as your powers of observation.
Flaws: See above
Tips: HO fans bring a dictionary, adventure fans, ignore it.

I only played 10 minutes of it...
I always try the free hour before buying any game.
I started to play this one but it was so ridiculously easy, it just sucked all the fun out of it.
